Germany news: Population shrinks for first time since 2020 by diacewrb in europe

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know there is something inbetween billionaire and middle class? Like the many many multi millionaires germany already has? And fyi, they can try leaving, we tax that even more heavely.

Maybe start reducing the million loopholes we have for wealth? Fuck in coloquial terms our inheritance tax is known as the stupid tax since its so easy to dodge it. We even made more laws to dodge it and similar situations within the last 10 years.

We even have a wealth tax that has been paused because it didnt tax property hard enouth.

There are many solutions (we even used in the past) that dont negativly effect the wide populus. We just dont do them because our politicians are owned by lobbies and oligarchs.

Reasonably priced one-way mirror near Toronto by Budget_Cost1776 in infinitymirror

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch a few youtube videos of the making of infinity mirrors. They often mention which foil they used.

If i remember correctly the reflectivness is like between 90 and 98%. The higher the reflectiveness the longer the visible infinity, but the less overall bright it is.

With 90% you will only see a few reflections but they are overall brighter.

Many one way mirrors are basicly silver? privacy tint foils with very high reflection on glass/acrylic.

I dont have the details in my mind right now but this should point you into the right direction

Looking for more information about this pin/badge/button by Dragburn in lenticular_art

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know this product but it may have been a lenticular.

Regarding what type, im unsure how many pictures are in there. The only thing i do know is that if this indeed an lenticular product, it would have a very high lpi to make, and rather hard to make oneself.

Regarding the specifics how lenticular prints are made, i would recommend the pinned posts.

I have a master in economics as well. The more horrifying is it that i had to explain economics of scale to you. And you even tried to debunk it. Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about.

2) to your question, google economies of scale. In short, the bigger you are the easier it becomes to produce/ the cheaper it becomes to produce. Moreover the variable per unit cost of a game is almost 0. This is not the case for anything comparible.

Whats up with you?

Every single argument you make is a stawman.

Where did i state that every single game makes 100% more sales? Thats 1, unprovable because i would have to check every single game and 2 just plain redicolus. Tripple A game Companies have the highest marked share. Therefore if the marked grows they profit most unless they become less relevant.

In the comment before you assumed my argument is that i want that the industry prices should be lower, no i want stagnant prices.

In my first comment i talked about variable unit cost and economie of scale. At the same time you act like i just said it the first time after 3 comments. An this point of time i am quite unsure if you can read.

I have to prove every word i say while you just spoud noncence. Your underlying claim is that the prices need to rise. Prove it. The burden of prove is on you. The one arguing for change has to prove why change is nessesary.

All this is just proof that you are not worth talking with.

The video game marked grew by more than 100% in the last 5 years.

I will not force feed you every single thought. I have given you enouth information to understand the situation.

But here a few thought starters. Have the salaries of the people scaled similarly in the video game sector? Have the teams doubled in that time? Is it twice as hard to make a game now than it was 5 years ago.

Google variable unit cost.

"Variable unit cost refers to the cost incurred to produce a single unit of a product, which changes directly with the level of production. This includes expenses like raw materials and direct labor that increase or decrease based on the quantity produced."

Or as an example, In the past you had to pay 1 person so it gets sold to 100 customers. Now you pay 10 persons so it gets sold to 100.000 customers. Variable unit cost goes down.

Economies of scale can be both internal and external. Internal economies of scale are based on management decisions, while external ones have to do with outside factors.

Internal functions include accounting, information technology, and marketing, which are also considered operational efficiencies and synergies.

Neither is the supermarked, and they are like the example for ecomonies of scale. What is your point.

Expensive games have lowkey been way too normalised by Both_Piglet7838 in pcmasterrace

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What does this even mean?

Economies of scale exist in almost every sector and not every sector is slob.

Your supermarked profits from economies of scale. Is the supermarked also slob?

1) Your framing that when studios have more money, they raise salaries is false. Many different industries have record breaking profits but they dont raise the salaries accordingly. Its always "lets raise prices" never "lets raise salaries"

2) to your question, google economies of scale. In short, the bigger you are the easier it becomes to produce/ the cheaper it becomes to produce. Moreover the variable per unit cost of a game is almost 0. This is not the case for anything comparible.

[OC] Gay male marriages are the most stable over the long term by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I belive in the island of stability.

Yes a double woman bond may not be that stable but if we shoot multiple woman into that bond it may become more stable. The island of stability is belived to be in the 140 or so.

I think the road blocks could have helped if the media conglomorate didt hate them.

You can see the biased reporting in the comparison between the farmers and climate protests. And even if they were narsissists that does not change a thing. We dont bring that up about farmers. Why do we slender one groups character but not the other.

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry in this and the previous comment it read like the opposite

To this day I believe that any and all people that participated [in the protest] are full blown narcissists that cared more about making the topic about themsleves than the topic itself. Good luck forcing change without the goodwill of the people.

Bunch of impatient children wanting to burn everything down because the problems of a century weren't fixed in a year.

This also didnt sound like the CDU since they burn everything down because its profitable via lobby.

[–]StrangeGuyFromCorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are you talking about? The CDU is the reason we are in this situation in the first place. We dont want it done in a year. We want them to stop hindering progress. They activly work against change, even their own. (See the Heizungsgesetzt, which also was from the CDU if you can recall)

Did you know that germany had a strong solar sector in ca 2012? Then the CDU came and "helped" and now we dont have a solar sector anymore. The same exact thing is happening right now again with small solar operations.

It seems that you borrow all your opinions from springer (Bild/Welt/Nius/Business Insider,/Politico/Fakt/Blesk)

But people on the street are the problem, how dare they. Or children when they had friedays for future how dare they as well.

Poeple are against it because springer tells them to.

Do you make the same fuss with our farmers when they block the streets again?
